Maccabi Haifa managed to prevail tonight (Monday) 0:2 over Maccabi Tel Aviv, getting closer to a distance of only one point from its sworn rival and mainly proving to itself that it has all the tools to run towards a fourth championship in a row. This victory brought with it quite a few beautiful landmarks for The greens and negatives for Maccabi, landmarks we haven't seen for many years.
First of all, for the first time since 2010, Maccabi Haifa kept a clean sheet against its great rival.
Masai Degu's side did not concede in the game in Bloomfield between the teams last month, not in the Toto Cup final which ended in victory for the Yellows only in a duel from the penalty spot and also tonight.
The last time this happened was at the beginning of the 2010/11 season.

Also, this is the second consecutive season in which the greens beat the yellows twice.
Before that it had not happened since 2011/12.
Lorenzo Shimich, the defender who was slandered quite a bit after his debut in the green uniform in the loss to Maccabi Pat, scored the fastest goal between the teams since the great 2:3 of Maccabi Haifa over Maccabi Tel Aviv in Sami Ofer, in which an own goal by Dolev Haziza After 53 seconds he gave Maccabi Tel Aviv the lead.
Que buena noche!
✌️
